Green Bay activates Lecitus Smith from the practice squad for Sunday Night against Dallas as Week 4 injuries thin the offensive line. With Zach Tom, Anthony Belton, and likely Aaron Banks out or doubtful, the Packers may run with seven healthy blockers and lean on Smith as an eighth lineman. The projected starting five is Rasheed Walker, Jordan Morgan, Elgton Jenkins, Sean Rhyan, Darian Kinnard, while Donovan Jennings, Brant Banks, and Smith provide depth. This upgrade also strains the field-goal protection unit, possibly shaping both fantasy output and in-game strategy.

Green Bay elevates Lecitus Smith from the practice squad to the gameday roster as injuries thin the offensive line for the Cowboys game. Zach Tom and Anthony Belton are out, with Aaron Banks likely sidelined, leaving Smith joined by Brant Banks and Donovan Jennings as backups. Smith, the only one with real NFL start experience among the depth options, would be the most likely center if Elgton Jenkins is unavailable. The Packers still project Rasheed Walker at left tackle, Jordan Morgan at left guard, Jenkins at center, Sean Rhyan at right guard, and Darian Kinnard at right tackle, with a possible swap of Morgan and Kinnard to bolster depth.

In short, injured tackle and guard spots thrust Smith into the spotlight as a potential center, while Banks and Jennings provide emergency options. The lineup, barring further changes, centers around Jenkins as the anchor with a shallow pool behind him.

Week 4 injury stress hits the Green Bay offensive line as Anthony Belton joins Zach Tom on the sideline, leaving the Packers with a patched depth chart for a Dallas clash. Belton’s ankle injury removes a trusted RT option after three games, while Tom’s oblique issue and Aaron Banks’ groin doubt compound the problem. If Belton, Tom, and Banks are unavailable, Green Bay will pivot to Rasheed Walker at left tackle, Jordan Morgan at left guard, Elgton Jenkins at center, Sean Rhyan at right guard, and Darian Kinnard at right tackle, with Morgan having flashed at RT earlier. LaFleur reiterated, “Next man up,” signaling a shuffle-heavy plan against a Cowboys front that can pressure. The Packers expanded their practice squad with Brant Banks and Lecitus Smith to bolster depth, while John Williams and Jacob Monk open the season on PUP and Travis Glover is IR.
